The latest actions of Tokwiro Enterprises indicates that they are joining the “safety first” movement a little too late, as the two cheating scandals already took place, but it is also better late than never. According to the latest announcement of Tokwiro Enterprises, the new poker network will be launched onto both of the sites that have been involved in the cheating scandals. There is plenty of different opinions about launching the new poker platform, however generally there are either positive or negative. Over the last year cheating scandals brought a lot of criticism to the online casino gambling industry and Tokwiro is now trying to outrun that bad reputation by launching completely new Cereus network.

Paul Leggett, well known Tokwiro Enterprises’ COO, has a little different take though. He squashed the rumor that Cereus Network launch is move to save face and break connections with the two cheating scandals. Moreover he said that this new platform will only bring completely new opportunities of play for gamblers from both sites, what means larger pool of competitors and larger tournaments which obviously means larger winnings. He also added that the new platform was designed with the special attention to be safe for the players.

This new poker network will give the players from both of the online casino poker sites some completely new features of additional protection. The Tokwiro’s COO, assures that network will be a lot safer than any other and the scandals that took place before will not happened again.

The rumors and news regarding the latest cheating scandals at sister sites Absolute Poker and Ultimate Bet didn’t die down even almost year passed from the second one. The latest parent company’s launch of a new online poker network had made the whole case fresh a little bit longer than some thought so. What’s more, the online casino gambling world could not just let it be forgetting, especially because of Tokwiro Enterprises nonchalance regarding bringing those who were responsible for the scandals to justice.

The latest impressive interview with a local online casino informational portal gave by Paul Leggett, the Tokwiro Enterprises’ COO, show the approach of the company. He spent some information about the new Cereus Poker Network and attitude regarding overcoming the not so well reputation the company got because of the cheating scandal. However, regarding the bringing justice to the people who was responsible for the crime, Leggett didn’t say anything meaningful but the same empty comments as the company stated before.

The recent approach of the Tokwiro Enterprises, announced at the Leggett interview certainly show that the company and the two online casino poker gambling sites don’t feel responsible for bringing justice to crimes who cheated and stole players’ money. “We’re simply not judge and jury” – the tired line of Towiro statement has been repeated by the Leggett in his latest appearance. Of course, the information about the new Cereus Poker Network was thorough and detailed, the statement regarding the cheating scandals stay unchanged.

The Absolute Poker scandal from over a year ago simply couldn’t vanish with no consequences. And we’re talking about the consequences that the whole online casino poker gambling industry had to face and maybe still has to. That wasn’t all of course. Moreover, just six months later Ultimate Bet had the same issue. It took more than a year for the Tokwiro Enterprises before it started to strongly recover from the negative publicity. If you are not familiar with the case, we’re talking about the two infamous cheating scandals. Not to mention the way in which the parent company, Tokwiro handled the media. No wonder that gamblers lost faith in the online casinos and the internet poker gambling companies.

Tokwiro didn’t give up and just last month announced a name change for the company- the two online poker gambling sites operate on the Cereus Poker Network and they decided to take serious steps to pay their dues and earn the players’ trust again. And what would be a better way to do this if not providing them with big wins?

The big jackpot announcement from the Cereus Network comes by way of a Bad Beat jackpot payout of $250,000 for the player who triggered the jackpot. With no doubt, this is a great way for Ultimate Bet and Absolute Poker to make up for their mistakes…winning money is such a nice feeling, isn’t it? The winning player was very new to the poker gambling network and triggered the big jackpot by losing the round of poker with a straight flush- and that’s precisely how you trigger the jackpot on the bad beat games- you lose the round with what should be a winning hand.

The Bad Beat games are quite popular at the online casinos and poker gambling sites and the winning player as well as all other gamblers at the table, are definitely glad they were playing that hand of poker. The total jackpot came in nearly $790,000. The winner earned $250,000 and the rest was divided between other players.

There’s no way for Tokwiro Enterprises to avoid the sad consequences of the past scandals. And there’s nothing that company can do about the fact that the hot details of the scandals will see a public light very soon. Actually, it is just a matter of days before the popular US show 60 minutes will air the highly anticipated expose on this infamous issue. With great tension, the company is waiting for Saturday, when the special is set to air. However, the truth is that Tokwiro has already started to face pressure from the Washington Post which has begun to release a series of articles that will cover some additional details and information that will be only highlighted in the 60 Minutes special.

The Washington Post collaborated with 60 Minutes on producing and filming the program. It has been closely examining not only Tokwiro, but also the entire online casino gambling industry and now it wants to take advantage of these observations.

In recently released Post article , a lot of interesting details concerning the infamous cases are described , yet special focus is put on the man running it all- Joseph Tokwiro Norton, who is the former Grand Chief of the Kahnawake tribe and is the man at the helm of Tokwiro Enterprises. In the article, particular attention is paid to Norton’s career and its association with the online casino gambling industry and the scandal that would later negatively influence the international industry.
